Floyd refused to be weighed on the same day weigh in?

[SweetPea]

I was reading somewhere else that Marquez weighed about 148 on the day of the fight and that Floyd had actually refused to be weighed. Is there any credence to this?

Floyd did look huge compared to Marquez, so he could have been weighing something like 155 pounds and up by my reckoning.

Floyd also blew off the normal Friday interview meeting with the HBO announcers, and then he blew off the prefight locker room interview.

So I'm not sure that he refused to get weighed unofficially by HBO because he was trying to hide his weight. It might have just been that he was screwing with HBO at every opportunity.

Meh, considering the circumstances, pretty unlikely.
